That might have been the whole thing right there, the incredible experience as well as the solid play and their savvy out on the court. It was like old men playing against young guys out there. They knew what they were doing. They never got rattled. They never got shaken.

defensive florida game good half held man pick second steven using
With Florida you have got to pick a poison. I thought in the second half by using man where there was more one-on-one coverage, Steven (Hill) really held his own. I thought he had a really good game on the defensive end.

We identified a few players late and we really feel like we got the player we wanted.

It would be a big boost. We lost the first two and dug ourselves a hole. Winning is contagious. We want to get on a contagious winning streak as we go down the stretch.

I've been really pleased with actually how we've played as a whole on the road. Now, it's just that fine line of getting that big road victory.
doubt hard last particular team wins
It would have been really hard to be 0-3 at this particular time, no doubt about it. They were tense. They wanted those last two wins and we didn't get them. But this team now, I think, will feel better about itself.
cut exactly push
We cut down those turnovers from the first half. Our second-half push was exactly what we needed.
